Many districts have invested considerable time and effort in the TLAC series. We are excited about the possibility of partnering with your district to help sustain that work.
We are scheduling two days of training and practice for your new staff members. Sessions will be held on August 5 and January 8, 202. We will meet from 9:00-3:00.
Session will be held in-person at Prairie Winds Community Center in Bridgeport.

We’re looking forward to supporting your educators and are excited about the work we can accomplish together.
Lunch will be on your own.
